We are prepared for 2-D Bills — Delimitation and Dismissal: Jairam Ramesh

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh expressed confidence that the united Opposition would block the proposed Delimitation Bill and the Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill during the upcoming Monsoon Session of Parliament. He criticized the bills as 'dangerous' and 'diabolical,' arguing that the government lacks the necessary majority to pass them, even with potential abstentions. Ramesh highlighted the previous defeat of a similar delimitation bill in April, where the government fell short of the required two-thirds majority. He acknowledged the recent splits within the Trinamool Congress and Shiv Sena (UBT) as setbacks but emphasized ongoing coordination among opposition parties. Additionally, he dismissed concerns about the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) aligning with the BJP, stating that the DMK continues to oppose the ruling party.
